'Referees wield too much power'

I think fans and players are being exposed to brutality.

I think fans and players are being exposed to brutality.

Whenever referees make a blunder, even someone not familiar with the rules of the game can tell what is happening. But the so-called "professional" referees see the opposite or don't see at all.

I think these officials were given too much power, which lead them to get away with murder.

We have even seen clubs, players and fans punished for their irresponsible doings, which is a good thing to do to curb bad behaviour, but the worst culprits (referees) continue to get away with it.
